bloody and muddy


My first cylocross race of the season could've gone better. I took a wet corner too fast and kissed the pavement. Still, I got up and finished--why waste a drive to New Hampshire?


My face looks like hell, but at least that won't keep me from riding.

  1. Good for you for finishing the race, Hannah! I hope you heal up quickly - that Triple Antibiotic should help ;-).

    We left before finding you again yesterday - sorry about that! I will make sure to always carry that stuff with me though - you were the second person who used it yesterday.

    See you at Suckerbrook?

    But you know what they say - chicks dig scars!

  4. Don't worry about replacing the tube - comes pretty cheap at CVS ;-). Besides, it's the least I could offer you!

  5. I seriously want to cry whenever I look at you all scraped up. Seriously, that better be the last face plant of the season...or career.

  6. Sorry about your crash... heal fast! Way to get up and keep racing.
    You have the most beautiful bike!! I was drooling over it in the parking lot well before the race. :) Awesome!
